Placement Creative Team - The Guardian, London

Guardian Labs launches Team Labs to help young creatives learn the art of branded content.

Following the appointment of our new Creative Director, Alistair Campbell, in July, Guardian Labs, The Guardian’s in house branded content innovation division, are announcing the launch of a new creative intern scheme - Team Labs.

Branded Content is an ever more important tool for brands. The Guardian has always excelled at creating engaging, immersive story’s about the world around us. At Guardian Labs we use the same approach to create engaging, immersive stories around brands.

Team Labs will be looking to bring in some of London’s most promising creative student teams, giving them experience within one of the UKs most progressive media companies. Creating and crafting amazing content ideas to live across the whole Guardian network. Learning as they go and hopefully teaching us a thing or two as well.

Working directly with Alistair, initially the placements will be for 1 month, with the potential to be extended up to 3 months. Teams will be paid £250 each per week while on placement.
